All of this time we have talked about what to eat and what not to eat. Though, that is only part of the solution to a good diet. There is something that we also need to talk about. What we haven't talked about is eating habits. Knowing when you should eat and when you should not eat is an important topic and strategy of a successful diet. The reason it is important is because when you are dieting, you don't want to run the risk of binge eating. In other words, pushing yourself to the point of acute hunger then overeating all at one time. Let me ask you this... does this ring a bell at all? For breakfast you have very little to eat or perhaps nothing at all. Around lunch time, you are either too busy or you just don't want to consume any unhealthy restaurant or fast foods. So by this point maybe you've had something to drink and a cracker or two. Now, by the time you get back home, your body is screaming for something to eat. In fact, you're so hungry you could eat a proverbial horse. You rationalize eating way more than you should because you essentially have had nothing all day long. You end up closing out your day by watching some television... in fact, you fall asleep while doing so. So, eating all three of your daily meals in one sitting isn't the same for you as eating three separate meals during the day? Nope... not hardly. Your body isn't prepared to handle that type of all at once digesting and it is not healthy. All you are doing is over loading your body. The real risk of binging is this. You will end up eating things that you shouldn't be eating. You will end up eating a ton of fast food or other food that is high and fat and easy to obtain. Why is this? This is because you are so hungry, you have to eat something now. This tends to be whatever you can get your hands on. Generally, it will be something that isn't good for you. This is why it is important that you eat all three of your meals. A sling shot type of eating habit will not only not accomplish your weight loss goals (in fact it will probably make your weight even worse) but it is very unhealthy for your body as well. Think consistent nourishment for your body in more frequent measured doses. Healthy snacks between your smaller meals is also a good practice (note the 'healthy' part). Having a healthy snack between the meals is a great way to keep your body's nourishment and energy level at a more consistent operating level and help you stay more consistent with healthy eating habits. The key thing to remember is to eat healthy snacks. Eat things that make your feel good, not things that are loaded with fat. Things that are loaded with fat will only make you feel drained and make you want to snack more. Changing your eating habits to having three smaller meals per day is the goal. Even if you seem to struggle to do this, be patient and persistent... do not allow the binge eating cycle to get started. Remember that if your eatings habits involve starving yourself all day long to the point of getting the shakes then eating whatever you can to make them stop; you need to change your eating habits.
